When he mentioned the Pope, Xu Fei's face was full of reverence. It was obvious that he was a fanatical believer.
Bibidon was the most capable Pope in the history of the Martial Soul Palace. Her methods were indeed swift and unfathomable. Under her leadership, the Martial Soul Palace had achieved great development. On the surface, it seemed that it was even on par with the two empires.
In reality, the Martial Soul Hall controlled more than sixty percent of the soul masters in the world of soul masters. Other than the three upper sects, the four lower sects had all submitted to the Martial Soul Hall. It was the most tyrannical soul master organization on the continent. It had more than seventeen top-tier Titled Douluo, including Bibi Dong and the seven Titled Douluo under him, as well as the nine Great Consecrators of the Elder Hall.
With such strength, they had actually failed in the original novel. It was quite unbelievable. It could only be said that they had met Tang San, who was a cheat. It was not their fault.
Tang San was a god who could be resurrected after death. Furthermore, he had two gods in one body. He had both the Sea God and the Asura God.
The continent could have been unified a long time ago, but it was still divided even after ten thousand years. Instead, it was swallowed by the Sun Moon Empire. Putting aside Tang San's family feud, Tang San's victory was actually a setback for the entire Douluo Continent.
In the world of the Douluo Continent, there was no absolute good or evil. It was just a struggle between the various powers.
Tang San's actions were not that righteous. He was just avenging his family. After all, the Martial Soul Palace killed his mother (even though they were resurrected later). They killed Xiao Wu's mother. It was natural for him to seek revenge.
The Martial Soul Palace was not wrong either. As a human, it was natural for them to hunt for soul rings to increase their strength. Even Tang San did not hunt soul beasts for soul rings. It was just that the soul beasts that the Martial Soul Palace hunted were his family members.
In the end, it was just a difference in their standpoints.
The existence of the Martial Soul Palace was extremely important to the entire Douluo Continent, and its contributions to the Douluo Continent were indelible.
Helping commoners to awaken for free gave commoners the possibility of becoming Soul Masters. Giving Soul Masters golden soul coins greatly increased the number of Soul Masters, and also gave commoners a goal to strive for, providing commoners with a path to succeed.
In the entire Douluo Continent, aside from the Martial Soul Palace, which other organization would pay attention to commoner soul masters?
Even the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, which had always recruited commoner soul masters, only recruited servants and servants. The sect placed more emphasis on bloodlines.
Only the Martial Soul Palace treated all commoners equally. In the end, the Martial Soul Palace was more like a guild, and talents were what the Martial Soul Palace valued the most.
At the same time, the Martial Spirit Hall also maintained order in the world of soul cultivators. Without the Martial Spirit Hall, who knew how many commoners would've been persecuted by soul cultivators? Who knew how many evil soul cultivators would've appeared, and the world of soul cultivators would've been thrown into chaos?
Perhaps some people would say that the Martial Soul Palace had many Soul Masters who bullied commoners. In fact, it was very normal for a large organization to have a few dregs. As long as there were laws, strict patrols, and effective measures, this kind of situation wouldn't be difficult to resolve.
On the contrary, the aristocrats from the two empires oppressed commoners even more.
Lu Yuan thought about a lot of things. He didn't have any prejudice against the Martial Soul Palace. In this world, there wasn't only white and black. Every organization might have both white and black, and the Martial Soul Palace could only be considered gray at best. There was still a possibility of saving it.
It was a little too childish to blindly label the Martial Soul Palace as evil just based on the original novel's influence.
At the very least, compared to the two empires, Lu Yuan had a better impression of the Martial Soul Palace.
Lu Yuan was from Notting Academy, so he knew how filthy the nobles were. Their faces were disgusting. If it were not for Fellows, who was afraid of causing trouble for him, he would have already beaten up those noble students from Notting Academy. When he beat up Xiao Chenyu, to be honest, he felt really good!
Of course, this didn't mean that Lu Yuan would definitely work for the Martial Soul Palace. He had never been a reckless person. It all depended on how things developed.
At the end of the day, Lu Yuan was a person with a conscience and compassion. However, he was also selfish. He cared more about himself and the people around him. Although he hated the aristocrats, he was willing to help as much as he could. However, if it hurt himself or the people he cared about, then he could only apologize.
He was never a saint!
"Lu Yuan!" Lu Yuan was still deep in thought when a voice suddenly woke him up.
"What are you thinking about? Are you listening? "Xu Fei asked.
"I'm listening, Uncle Xu. You're right. Please continue!" Lu Yuan hurriedly replied.
Xu Fei took a closer look at Lu Yuan before he continued.
.....
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye. In these ten days, Xu Fei and Lu Yuan had already passed through Fasno Province and half of Balak Kingdom. They were now at the border of Balak Kingdom.
Balak Kingdom wasn't far from Martial Soul City. After Balak Kingdom, they would arrive at Heaven Dou Imperial City. After Heaven Dou Imperial City, they would arrive at Martial Soul City in three or four days.
Fengming Village!
It was an ordinary village, but not an ordinary one. It was just like the Holy Spirit Village where Tang San was born.
The Holy Spirit Village was called the Holy Spirit Village because it had a Soul Sage. The Fengming Village was even more extraordinary because the current Pope Bibidon was from Fengming Village. (Author's Note: This is purely fictional. Please do not take offense!)
Fengming Village was originally called Orchid Field Village because the orchids in the village were very popular. Most of the fields in the village were planted with orchids, hence the name.
Ever since Bibi Dong ascended to the position of the Pope, Orchid Field Village was renamed to Fengming Village, which meant that the phoenix spread its wings and cried out to the nine heavens!
As the current Pope's hometown, Fengming Village was only a small village. However, no one dared to cause trouble here, so the atmosphere in the village was very peaceful.
"Fengming Village is right in front of us. This is the current Pope's hometown. Even though Fengming Village hasn't produced any Soul Masters in recent years, it is still very famous in Balak Kingdom. Also, Fengming Village's specialty orchid brew is very good!" Xu Fei introduced.
"Is that so?" Lu Yuan was interested when he heard that Fengming Village was Bibidon's hometown.
"You'll know when we get there. Hehe!" Xu Fei laughed as he ordered the coachman to speed up.
After another ten minutes or so, the curtains of the carriage fluttered in the wind. Lu Yuan's nose twitched as he narrowed his eyes. "Uncle Xu, do you smell blood?"
